amazing explore guys, so interesting I worked on bunker mechanical services installations as a young apprentice in the late 70's and early 80's the quality of these bunkers along with the inbuilt design details was amazing , the bunkers I worked on were mostly to remotely control nuclear power stations in time of war or other extraordinary occurrences, along with black staring of services etc. The gas alarm in the ladies ablutions (as toilets seemed to always called on bunker drawings) was monitoring methane gas in the sewerage sump receiver, under normal working conditions this tank had a twin pipe cross receiver fan assisted venting arrangement, at time of expected outside to bunker air pressure differential (explosion situations) the vent system would be isolated to prevent the outside pressure causing a reflux of the sewerage into the bunker through internal toilets drains etc, this shutdown situation needed to be monitored as its own gas could cause the same reflux and danger or internal explosion by the methane gas. sorry to go on guys

Spectacular. That place is massive, truly impressive. One clue to it's definite over-engineering is the fact of all those enormous open rooms with completely free space, no support columns. It's staggering to consider the initial building cost of a facility like this, not to mention subsequent maintenance when it was operative. And to think, there are probably hundreds or thousands more facilities like this, many much larger and more elaborate, in use around the world. The scale is incomprehensible.

I have about 100 detailed A3 plans of the Chilmark Bunker, plus loads of photos & video of it. It was all pristine when they sold it, but the rooms had the furniture taken out. The roof is only 50 cm thick & spans about 37 feet either side of a reinforced concrete mid wall. It has heavy high tensile rebar in it, but even so, at that large a span it would have collapsed if say, a 1 megaton ground burst nuke aimed at it had landed much closer than about 2 miles away. RAF ROTOR bunkers have 10 feet, or even 12 feet thick solid concrete roofs over that sort of span. They sometimes added new floors above the ROTOR bunkers, but when the concrete was only less than 2 feet thick they put in columns with flared heads about every 15 feet. They did that at the Shipton ROTOR bunker to make it a 4 storey bunker. Chilmark originally cost around £3.2 million to build. Its walls are only 35cm (14 inches) thick.Some books mentioning it are wrong, saying Chilmark's walls are 2 feet thick, but they're not. The newer RAF bunker at High Wycombe cost over £80 million to build. We don't really go in for the super bunkers like the Americans do, built deep within granite mountains. Even their bunkers would be destroyed by a direct nuclear hits on them, especially on their entrance tunnels. Our main underground bunker at Corsham was only 100 feet below ground, so would have collapsed in a WW3, & the UK government no longer use it. "Burlington" is vastly bigger than the Chilmark bunker, & the US Cheyenne Mountain bunker too, covering so many miles that electric buggies were used to trundle around the internal "streets." All a thing of the past now. Nice places, though.

@@michaelthomas3105 One thing that did make me to DOH when visiting the bunker is that the air intakes has just simple wooden cheapo doors on them. Surely these would have not withstood any type of blast like the main doors were designed to do. These would have just popped like cardboard. Seemed to me like a major design flaw in the place when we were there.

@@MatthewWilliamsFly , you're right, the place was badly designed , so was not much use as a strong blast shelter, only really a glorified fallout shelter. The steel doors would have had the additional purpose of helping to keep the public out, though at only half inch thick mild steel, although with box section around the edges, anyone with oxy- acetylene from say, the local garage, could have cut in. The actual structure would have survived a bit of blast as a reinforced concrete building, but people inside would have likely felt the pressure build up, though it might not have been enough to kill them. It would have depended on how big a nuke & how close.

Actually, Chilmark bunker was over-engineered in some respects, but the open plan design without pillars meant that its roof is relatively weak. It spans an enormous 36 feet, tough is only half a metre (20 inches) thick. The should have either A/ made the roof a lot thicker, B/ put in columns, perhaps with flared "mushroom" heads, or C/, designed the roof with deep down stand beams. As it is, the bunker would take some blast, but it has no automatic blast valves either. It would not have cost vastly more to have made it better, but it was never needed anyway. For comparison, the roofs of RAF ROTOR bunkers are 10 or 12 feet thick, often with the similar span of around 40 feet. Kind regards.

I shot a short film in this bunker 10 years ago, a lot of the random junk you see in there was because the owner at the time was basically using it as a place for his divorced friends to store their crap. A lot of them were TV industry and rocket scientist guys so there was some really weird cool old stuff. Also it was moldy and rusty even then, so not sure how much damage the grow room did. TBH the photos I've seen it's actually better condition now. We stayed there and there was mold absolutely everywhere.

Tacan is used today its like the military version of VHF Omni Directional Range or VOR. Those are those tiny little buildings you see every so ofyen in the country or near airports that look like they have little church steeples on them. They shoot a radio beacon out on every compass degree, yes 360 seperate beams, you tune into them and navigate to and from them. The military tacan addition to some of the VOR stations are used by military aircraft for the ecact same thing but they add the ability to give distance data to the VOR or TACAN station.

So me a friend came back with climbing gear but there was workmen there with diggers clearing everything outside and now on Google earth the site is completely clear. I don't know what they cleared it for by I heard a rumour they was going to turn the bunker into a underground house, don't know if that's the case or not. I was so gutted I never got to explore this place but glad I watched your video so I've had an insight into what I missed out on. Great job guys.

Last I heard Chilmark was to be used for wine storage. They already use the R6 ROTOR bunker at Soar in Devon for that. Another R6 ROTOR bunker, in Cornwall, is partly used to brew beer. Lizard Ales will sometimes show people around the bunker if they are not too busy, so phone them first to enquire. They even gave someone I know a free beer, and let him look around the (mostly derelict) vast 2 level bunker.

we know the police wentback and forth clearing the place out. the office I spoke to when flying this footage said it was teams of like 10 ten and took them weeks to go through it all. After that they changed the locks on the blast doors and those locks comprise of a key about 1 foot long which has to go through the blast door onto the lock on the other side. I would say fairly inpenetrable unless someone is crazy enough to start hacksawing through stuff again - which was how we found our way in on the other video.

@@Lucas_Oldiee The generators were in pristine condition & the kitchen was full of stainless steel gear, 2 tall fridges, ovens & an industrial food mixer. . The government just didn't seem bothered about clearing out stuff like that, though most of the rooms had no furniture left in. I'm afraid what was left in there either got stolen, or has rusted away a lot. Stainless steel fetches a lot in scrap value. Look at Kelvedon Hatch or Hack Green if you want to know how these places would have been originally. Both are open to the public. There was no expense spared for these nuclear bunkers. Google "Burlington" if you want to know what a really big UK bunker going for many miles was like. The government don't use that one anymore either. No bunker can withstand a direct hit from a nuclear weapon. Even the US one, over 2000 feet below the peak of the granite of Cheyenne Mountain, was only designed to do its job & last about 15 minutes before being destroyed by the Russians. Chilmark only has a 50cm (20 inch) concrete roof with a few feet of earth above it & its walls are just 14 inches thick. A 1 megaton nuke any closer than about 2 miles, & the Chilmark bunker would have been "toast". The Russians knew very well where all these bunkers were. That's the trouble, especially now with the satellites. Nowadays the nukes are far more accurate too, so they can be of a smaller yield to destroy bunkers, plus they can burrow into the ground before detonating. An awful lot of rubbish is talked about bunkers withstanding direct hits, & their depth & wall thicknesses are sometimes exaggerated.Few UK bunkers are much deeper than 100 feet below ground, & often that's the distance from top to bottom, not the earth above their roofs. I used to do nuclear warning for the MOD & have been in scores of big bunkers. Drakelow Tunnels in Kidderminster are good & go for 3.5 miles. It was converted to a regional bunker. Volunteers have been doing it up. I've supplied original video & pictures of that one & it's open to the public, but check their website first.

An underground bunker was built in the ravine in 1985, ready to act as the Regional Government Headquarters (RGHQ) for the southwest region in the event of a nuclear attack. It ceased to be operational in 1992, following the end of the Cold War, and was sold in 1997. During the night of 22 February 2017, officers from Wiltshire Police raided the bunker following information received that it had been converted for use as a cannabis farm. There are approximately 20 rooms in the building, split over two floors, each 200 feet long and 70 feet wide. Almost every room had been converted for the wholesale production of cannabis plants, and there was a large amount of evidence of previous crops. The farm was estimated to be able to produce £2m worth of cannabis per year using £250,000 worth of stolen electricity, with a crop of 4,000 plants every six weeks. The lighting equipment alone was estimated to have cost about £140,000. Three men admitted conspiracy to produce class B drugs and abstracting electricity. Charges of conspiracy to hold persons in slavery or servitude were initially made, but dropped due to lack of evidence. It took ten days to search and clear the site."""" From Wikipedia.

There was not even any mains electricity supply connected originally at Chilmark, instead using the massive internal diesel generators. The new owner that bought it off the Home Office had mains power put in, though I believe power for it as a cannabis farm was illegally stolen from the electricity company. There were bunkers of similar size for the same purpose all over the UK. Kelvedon Hatch in Essex is open to the public now, as are Anstruther in Scotland & Hack Green in Cheshire.

@@johnclarke2997 I can't remember there being any TV equipment in it when I was there in the 1990's. A soundproof room for radio, but not TV cameras. I don't think there was ever any intention of transmitting TV from there. It is only really a fallout shelter, with limited blast protection. It had no anti-blast valves, just a piece of 1/4 inch thick steel plate to be pushed over to block the air intakes if it was thought any nukes were imminent. They spent a lot on the actual air plant . Its walls are only 35 cm (14 inches) thick, with a 50cm roof. There was only 1 metre of earth above the roof, if that. Should have stood up to a 1 megaton ground burst about 3 or 4 miles away. It might have stayed intact a bit closer, perhaps even about 2 miles or so, but that couldn't have been guaranteed with roof spans of around 37 feet, though blast loads are of such short duration these places are probably stronger than basic calculations might suggest. The bunker might not actually have collapsed, but the roof might have leaked if a 1 megaton bomb went off say just within 2 miles. The internal walls are just breeze block, so not structural, other than the main reinforced concrete central wall all along the middle with a corridor on one side. Not really a strong bunker like Kelvedon Hatch, which has a 12 feet thick roof & 10 feet concrete walls.

Great videos gentlemen, also the vid of yours where you're looking around a bunker (I forget which one) and you've split it up into four parts ...shit me these places are vast. I've visited Kelvedon Hatch and I could have spent longer than the three hours I took to look around there. You are giving a really good insight into the hidden workings of society and all the money that gets spent on stuff most people with never see. Thank you again great vids, wishing you every success and happiness.

Always good to look at older uploads, looked like a lot of NATO stock number marked shock cases amongst the clutter. Radio/audio testing kits, lenses a lot of odd ball kit laying about for sure.

By the way most electronics equip has gold in it that can be extracted. With the tons of old equip down there theres easily thousands perhaps even tens of thousands in gold as that older stuff esp had alot in there. A butt ass ton of time consuming work tbough not including moving it out.
